Pétrus--Vintage 1979
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel
Levels: seven base of neck, five top shoulder. One nicked, all bin-soiled labels; six slightly nicked, seven corroded capsules
"1979 Petrus at a recent tasting was drinking well and charming, with an open, sexy Pomerol nose with hints of brown sugar, fig and plum and wild, slightly animal undercurrent-a truly classic wine from this estate. On the palate the wine was deep, succulent, and dynamic, with a structure that is still reasonably firm and a nice, lingering finish. Drinking well now, approaching maturity." At the 2010 Rare! Tasting in Detroit, CC, August 2010
